Broke the home button I followed the instructions and after rebooting, I don't see the home screen anymore. What's worse is that the single click home button doesn't work. Slow double click does go to the app that I reprogrammed to which was Vlingo. A quick double click goes to the default Voice Command application. Now I'm going to uninstall this and hope everything goes back to normal (since I still have access to Task Manager via holding Home key).

Works on Galaxy SIII Tentatively, this seems to work on a galaxy S III running JB, but I had already uninstalled S Voice and most of the other Samsung apps and I also am rooted. Will advise again in a few weeks. UPDATE: I've noticed that when I press the home button while using the launcher, this app causes the launcher to restart, and doesn't send the 'home' signal to the launcher. Can be frustrating when trying to go to my main screen.

Samsung galaxy s2 Didn't work, didn't break anything but tried the Samsung galaxy hack and it didn't work. Shame all I want to do is get rid of the double tap home button.

solution - if your homescreen becomes black I have SG2. After installing this app the phone "got lost", but i saved it! :D This is how: Long press the home button, select task manager, then downloaded, find "advanced home button" and delete it! the next time you press home ut will ask you to choose program, select your favorite and its done. hope it was helpfull!

DO NOT DOWNLOAD This app killed my phone, causing it to stop loading the homescreen or allow access to task manager, i now have to do a hard reset of my galaxy s2 because i cant access my phone anymore. this app should be taken off the market.

Not what I wanted I downloaded this so that I could use it to add the screenshot function to the home button, but it looks like all this does is launch apps and doesn't include system functions. Not terrible because I suppose it could be useful, but not really what I was looking for

One BIG Problem This mod works great for me. The extra shortcut is a massive concenience. *TAKE NOTE HERE, DEV* I once booted my phone to have no launcher load, and instead I was only able to get to my music app through doubletap function. This could have been potentially crippling, and I understand why other people gave this a very low rating. The reliability of this app/mod at boot needs to be seriously increased, or else people will be practically bricking their phone if the app fails to start the default launcher.

galaxy S2 - works as advertised! It disables the default home double tap as promised. in order to assign a new function pls follow instructions: in app manager choose TWlauncher (thats the default S2 launcher) and click on reset defaults. And the S2 hack, as stated, is irreversible. You can't set it back to voice commands, the default home button double tap configuration.

Do exactly what it says and it will do exactly what it says, minor quibble I set the system to recognize AHB as the default launcher, I set AHB to my preferred launcher, and I set AHB's double tap where I wanted it to go, and it works just the way it's supposed to. However, it hogs the home button from the launcher. When I'm in the launcher and press Home, it just blinks the screen and stays where it is in the launcher rather than performing the launcher's home button action. I emailed the developer, so maybe this will be addressed soon.

Work for one thing but not for other Now I can use my home bottom to lunch the apparently I want by press twice. Yet, then if I want to get back to my home screen there's nothing I can do, beside keep pressing the go back key. Press once = nothing happened. Press twice. = camera (my ideal apparently)

PERFECT it works perfectly to me, you guys, I know whays wrong with you, you are simply STUPID!! when you lunch this app, there are 2 buttons to use: - Set the app to lunch when u double tap AND a BBOUTTON WHERE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO SET YOUR DEFAULT LAUNCHER. so use them both, don't be stupid...

Almost there Although the double tap works great the home key doesn't actually go to the homepage of the home screen it just goes to whatever home page you were on prior (there should be a checkbox or option for which of the screens to go to when pressing once on the home button), which was disappointing and I'm still looking for a proper solution. This is a Galaxy Note III. I also didn't want to have a button laying around for gallaxy 2 that could be pressed accidently that does permanent damage. It should detect devic
